Is there a list of what the best types of wood to burn in an open
fireplace?
TIA
Any wood can be burned, but the hardwoods have better heat per pound. Yes,
even pine can be burned, but you can get much more creosote buildup. It has
to be burned hotter to avoid that.
I have read that hardwoods have better heat per volume, but that most woods
are similar in heat per pound. Hardwood is just heavier.
